| description | The growth of tourism in the small island has brought both positive and
negative impacts towards the environment particularly. However, the growth seems
disregard with the limited natural resources, facilities, accessibilities and others. Pulau
Perhentian, one of the well known islands in Malaysia that is struggling with many
physical carrying capacity related issues such as waste management, supply of
accommodation, utilities, facilities and environmental protection. Consequently, this study
aims to evaluate the destination characteristics that contribute to the management of
physical carrying capacity using the criteria matrix. Finding shows that the physical
development has marked the island into a yellow colour that indicates the condition of
current development. This evaluation is hoped to contribute and assist in future tourism
activities and physical developments in Perhentian. |
